When I go to the + Other Macro list, the TOC (Table of Contents) macro is not present.  Any ideas of why this would be happening?  I am not sure if it was ever there...

Hello Joel!
You could check if the macro is actually enabled in your instance:

1- Click Cog Icon>Add-ons
2- Select all add-ons
3- Search for the Table of Contents macro
4- Check if the add-on is enabled

If the add-on is enabled, you may need to re-index and clear your instance:

1- Shutdown Confluence
    * Make sure that the process is not running
    * You can check that with ps -aux | grep confluence in linux and via the Process manager in Windows
2- Go to <confluence-home>
3- Remove the following folders:
    * <confluence-home>/bundled-plugins
    * <confluence-home>/plugins-cache
    * <confluence-home>/plugins-osgi-cache
    * <confluence-home>/plugins-temp
    * <confluence-home>/bundled-plugins_language
    * <confluence-home>/index
    * <confluence-home>/journal
4- Check permissions for <confluence-home>
    * The user running Confluence must have *full read/write/execute permission on this folder
    * You can use the following commands to set this. Keep in mind that the user confluence here is just a placeholder, you must use the user that exists in your system
    * sudo chown -R confluence:confluence /path/to/<confluence-home>
    * chmod -R u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx /path/to/<confluence-home>
5- Start Confluence
6- Click *Cog Icon>General Configuration*
7- Search for *Content Indexing* in the left menu bar
8- Click the *Rebuild* button

This procedure will re-index your instance from scratch and also clear the plugin cache! Let us know if this helps out in your case.
